2015 Canceled TV Shows

In the past month or so there have been a number of articles published about the upcoming TV season and canceled shows. All of those articles reveal to you the canceled shows as well as all of the shows that have been renewed. In doing that I thought that those pieces were really overdoing it. Making lists too long, can become confusing, and when reading about too many shows it's easy to forget and or confuse what was canceled and what was renewed. A case of too much information.

Here is the definitive lists of only what was canceled. If there's a show not listed, then you can safely assume it's coming back for another season.

Most of these canceled shows were 1 or 2 seasons, with a few exceptions, and although American Idol is canceled it will air new episodes and complete its run this fall. Two shows that I thought were good and had potential were About a Boy and Selfie, and another show The Mindy Project may get picked up by another network.

There are other networks and many other shows, in fact just too many to cover. The focus of this article is on the major networks and the shows that they have canceled.

If you follow a show closely and it's not covered here...just google it!

Thanks for commenting. I've heard quite a bit about that show and am also surprised that it's canceled. Seems there's a lot of interest there, and maybe it's a mistake to cancel. I never did hear why it was canceled, so I am curious because there was a lot of interest there.

Thanks for taking the time to post a comment. I was surprised to learn of these shows getting the ax as well, could be a case of out with the old and in with the new? I suspect that those shows have declined in ratings and rather than run them into the ground, shut them down now...in doing so they may make more $$ on DVD sales and re-runs etc. Again, not sure why, one can only guess.

Thanks, R.K., for bringing this list of cancelled shows and networks. I like some of the older "classics"; however, I prefer them when shown in color and have good plots with clear themes. I apologize that I've not been able to watch frequently many of those on your list.

I loved Selfie:( hope you have a great day! do you want to follow each other via bloglovin? if yes, just follow me there and i'll follow you back soon! http://www.bloglovin.com/blogs/anna-alina-3947784

I too loved Selfie. I hate these lists, though. They’re mostly just confusing. And, it seems like the new shows we like are always the ones that don’t make the cut the next season, like The Millers, for example; they came out with a few new episodes, then a series finale.

Thank's for the list. I enjoyed the Mentalist but they took the Red John thing too far and hung on it until stepped off.CSI was getting a little old and NCIS was kicking them hard.It would be nice to see an end to the vampires and zombies.www.dmmcgowan.blogspot.com

It is cancelled, but it will still have a final run of new episodes this fall. The show is not the same without the original judges and they've just run this into the ground,The ad dollars aren't there anymore and staff salaries kill its profitability.

Great article. Personally, I liked Red Band Society along with the Lottery. When both got cancelled I was a little upset that the very moment that I actually got into television, the very shows that I picked to like were cancelled. Maybe for the sake of future shows, I just won't take a liking to any of them. lol.
